That of importance
|
You are more important than my possessions,
You are more important than my friends, or any dear one I may know,
You are more important that my work, than myself, than my very life:
For you are my blood,
Your seed is that from which I sprang,
Your soul is as though it were my own.
Because of you, I have known life,
But your life overshadows it.
All of my hopes, my thoughts, my prayers,
Are centered on you,
O my father.
May you someday know life.
